The symbols are geomantic figures and this is what they translate to in Latin:
"Via conjunctio amissio fortuna-minor rubeus laetitia carcer."
I spent awhile trying to translate that to English but it became obvious that it wasnt meant to be. Although if it is meant to be translated it's telling some obscure story about some kind of journey as far as I can tell.
The order of the Latin words correspond perfectly to the nocturnal figures (of the geomancy) that represent the planets in our solar system in the order they are distanced from Earth. (at the furthest point of their orbits).
Moon: Via
Mercury: Conjunctio
Venus: Amissio
Sun: Fortuna Minor
Mars: Rubeus
Jupiter: Laetitia
Saturn: Carcer
Seems to go along with the whole "per audica ad astra" theme they got going on.
Another interesting, but probably meaningless, thing I found is that these geomantic symbols can be directly translated into binary. Since 1s and 0s don't make any sense to anyone other than computers I converted them to base 10 and came out with this:
15 6 5 3 2 1 9
And in binary for all you nerds to jism over,
1111 0110 0101 0011 0010 0001 1001
I have no idea what any of this means and have spent way too long deciphering this -blam!-. If you can piece together any of this to make any sort of sense then be my guest. I'm going to bed now.
